Ok, this is my third extraction and all 3 were messy.
I'm trying to fabricate some form of spade to slither down each comb and recover without breaking up. My last try, was like trying to pick up a section of butter, and it simply dissolved as I tried to pull out the stack.
My only "disability" is...... I only have 1 arm, so ..............
entry point.....
capping off...
the only 2 frames saved, the main one with brood and poss queen, fell down the stack...
comb removed.... bee vac at the ready.
all sealed.
so I have till this Friday to try to fabricate a device to help me contain comb ready for each frame.
thanks all..... hope you enjoyed the images.
